So instead of 3, 4, 5 or more KDE/Qt based music players I´d rather see one or

extensible core and give it several faces. Make one player core that for a
change is absolutely solid and robust – I still have bugs with Phonon without
Pulseaudio here and with Pulseaudio I also have bugs – and then build upon
that core and simple interfaces and an advanced interface.


Would a common media database library would be a good idea? What else do music players have as a common core other than playback, which is already handled by the Phonon library?

+1 for a shared media database library. This is something I always wished was available because all the players reinvent this more or less.
